About
Built by the company behind RegAlign®.
RegAlign Limited develops products for regulated firms. RegAlign® and RiskAlign® are separate products being prepared for release together first.
RiskAlign® connects objectives, enterprise risks, appetite, controls, indicators, incidents, actions and decisions. RegAlign starts with regulatory requirements; RiskAlign starts with objectives and enterprise risks. The products keep separate records, but defined control references can move between them through a CSV exchange.
Before a firm uses either product, we confirm that the features, jurisdiction, integrations and setup it needs have been tested for that use. RiskAlign keeps the evidence and assumptions behind risk assessments visible, so people can explain how a position was reached.
RegAlign® and RiskAlign® are products of RegAlign Limited (registered in Jersey, company no. 165263). See /legal for the full entity and trade-mark record.
Brand and product Constitution
Four values. One governing standard.
RegAlign Limited’s Brand and Product Constitution governs its product portfolio. It requires clear evidence, honest descriptions of uncertainty and decisions made by the people responsible. RiskAlign applies these principles to enterprise risk.
Human by design
A named person makes each decision. The product helps with the work but does not decide for them.
The record shows which risk owner, control owner, reviewer or approver was responsible. Compass can suggest; it cannot decide for them.
Honest clarity
Say what is known, what is inferred and what is not yet established.
Risk positions distinguish evidence from assessment, and uncertainty remains visible rather than being converted into false precision.
Courageous judgement
Surface the uncomfortable position rather than the comfortable summary.
Appetite breaches, deteriorating KRIs, weak controls and unresolved assumptions are surfaced for review rather than softened for reporting.
Responsible progress
Make improvements without losing the record of who decided what and why.
The board can see what changed in a risk position, why it changed and who accepted it.
RegAlign® language
Precise, obligation-focused and evidence-first. The Compliance Officer / Head of Compliance needs to see what applies, what has changed, what has been tested and what remains unresolved.
obligation · evidence · control · monitoring · audit trail · version history
RiskAlign® language
Judgement-focused, analytical and board-oriented. The CRO and named risk owners make the decisions; the record shows who made them.
material · inherent · residual · appetite · scenario · KRI · treatment · exposure · evidence
Compass behaviour
Compass offers suggestions within individual products. It does not make decisions, and what it suggests depends on which product you are using.
Compass always
- · grounds material outputs in available evidence
- · distinguishes suggestion from human decision
- · makes uncertainty and limitations visible
- · records who reviewed the suggestion and what they decided
Compass never
- · approves a risk position by itself
- · closes a finding by itself
- · presents an inference as established fact
- · replaces a named human in the audit trail
Compass outputs remain suggestions until the person responsible reviews or accepts them.
Eight decision filters
Significant product, design and operating decisions are tested against the Constitution's decision filters.
- Human accountability
- Evidential basis
- Honest status
- Explainability
- Traceability
- Proportionality
- Practical value
- Defensibility
Accessibility
- · WCAG AA minimum; AAA where reasonably achievable.
- · Critical meaning must not depend on colour alone.
- · Key information should be understandable quickly without hiding material uncertainty or evidence gaps.
